Father of the Groom

Talk to me son
And let me tell you
As we stand together
How much I love you.

Listen to me, Son
And as we talk
And let me share
My heart with you

On this special day
Let us remember together
For we will have started
Our different roles in life
Before this special day is through.

You are no longer just my son
But you are the husband
Of my new daughter
And I'm no longer just your dad
But now I'm a father-in-law
(or father-in-love).

The memories come flooding in my heart
And my eyes betray me
And I fight to hold back tears
Of joy and love.

To My Son

My thoughts are with you
On this your wedding day
And in my heart I long for your marriage
To be perfect in every way.

You have grown so much
In this last few years
And had your share of laughter
As well as heartaches and tears.

I like the person that you are
This mature person you've become-
From my heart I say to you today
That I'm proud to call you son.

So go and take that step
That you now desire to take
Say "I do" and wed your bride
Then cut the wedding cake!

The Best is Yet to Come
(second wedding)

I would not have wanted things
Not to be perfect for you from the start-
Would not have ever wanted you
To have suffered a broken heart.

I would not have ever wanted vows
Spoken in love not to be kept
Would not have wanted family and friends
To have been sad and wept.

But life goes on and we live and learn
And as we learn we grow
We can not turn back the time
And know then the things we didn't know.

But we can go on with loving hearts
And do the best we can
And I'm go proud to see who you are today
And that you have someone to take your hand.

It is my heart's fondest wish
That all of your dreams come true
That your heart would always be a part
Of the love God has sent for you.

I would not undo the past at all
Because with sweet memories we are blessed
And of all the grandkids in the world-
I feel that mine are best!

Thena

A wedding is a special time
For happiness and rejoicing
My joy for you on your wedding day
Is the delight I'm voicing.

I celebrate with your loved ones
As you start a new era in your life
Bringing into the family
A loving bride-a wife.

Let the sweet memories of this day
Stay forever near you
And each day in many a way
Say "I love you" so that she may hear you.

God bless you my dear son
As you start on this new adventure today
May He be by your side and be your guide
Every single step of the way.

Thena

Congratulations Son

Just a little note to say
Congratulations, Son
On this happy day!
The day when you take a bride
ANd enjoy the happiness
Of having your best friend
Always by your side.
